  • Press-fit connections install without soldering or open flame
  • Reducing tee joins 2 in to two 1-1/2 in branches in one fitting

  • Built-in center stop dimple ensures correct tube insertion depth
  • Copper construction resists corrosion for long service life

Copper reducing tee for press-fit plumbing

The Viega ProPress 2918 is a copper reducing tee with press-fit connections on all three outlets. Side A accepts 2 in copper tube while sides B and C each accept 1 1/2 in tube. An EPDM O-ring and a centre-stop dimple are included for a secure, leak-free joint rated to 200 psi maximum operating pressure.

Replaces soldered or threaded copper tees

This fitting eliminates the need for open-flame soldering or pipe threading on potable-water lines. The press-fit method cuts installation time and reduces fire-risk on site. The jump is worth it when a project demands faster assembly, cleaner joints or compliance with no-flame workplace policies.

Suits installers working

Plumbers and mechanical contractors who regularly reduce from 2 in mains to 1 1/2 in branches will find the dimensions match that exact step-down. Installers needing other size combinations, non-copper materials or threaded ends should look at alternative fitting configurations.

Questions about this item

What copper tube sizes does the 2918 reducing tee accept on each port?

The tee accepts 2 in on the run and 1-1/2 in on both the branch and the other run port.

How do I install the ProPress tee and what step is often missed?

Cut tube square, deburr, mark insertion depth, press with a compatible jaw — the step often missed is verifying the mark is still visible after pressing.

When should the EPDM O-rings be inspected or replaced?

Inspect O-rings during any system service or if leakage appears; replace if they show cracking, hardening or permanent deformation.
